"Let me tell you about the Romans. They are the robbers of this world. When they've thieved everything on land, they'll rob the sea. If their enemies are rich, they'll take all they have. If their enemies are poor, they'll make slaves of them. Their work is robbery, slaughter, plunder. They do this work and they call it empire. They make deserts and they call it peace."
(That's a really good speech. Who wrote this episode?)

Rona Munro, who wrote "Survival", the final episode of the final season of Classic Who. So she has form, having written that magnificent final speech of the Seventh Doctor: "There are worlds out there where the sky is burning, where the sea's asleep and the rivers dream, people made of smoke and cities made of song. Somewhere there's danger, somewhere there's injustice and somewhere else the tea is getting cold. Come on, Ace, we've got work to do."

Thanks for your thoughts and quotes. I agree with you that the scene where the Doctor goaded Bill into "killing" him was cruel and out of character. Your quotes, on the other hand, make me appreciate again how fun Missy is being this season.

You seem to have chosen my favourite quotes too.

Oddly enough I had no problems understanding the crows.
